Turning Tragedies Into Blessings
II Kings 21:23-24 NKJV
[23] Then the servants of Amon conspired against him, and killed the king in his own house. [24] But the people of the land executed all those who had conspired against King Amon. Then the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his place.
Josiah was programmed to be fatherless and a failure. He was meant to be another young child the devil could dominate in preparation to run the throne. Let me explain.The National Center For Fathering predicts what the likelihood of people like Josiah were going to be in life. "... children from fatherless homes are more likely to be poor, become involved in drug and alcohol abuse, drop out of school, and suffer from health and emotional problems. Boys are more likely to become involved in crime, and girls are more likely to become pregnant as teens". That information is from The Journal Of Family Issues 25( January,2004 ). It has more damaging information. Thank God Josiah didn't read that. Sometimes ignorance is a blessing. That means that sometimes being unaware of certain information can allow you face life with a stronger sense of peace. Add to that , God was ahead of the enemy. The mother, Jedidah, did an excellent job. Josiah was eight when he became King.
Josiah's father, Amon was assasinated, by his servants. But they were not celebrated. They touched the Lord's anointed. They died for it. The lesson is that our job is to pray against evil, not to act as God. We are about to enter one of the finest seasons of religious reforms Judah had ever known. God can, and will turn your tragedies into blessings. The help will come from a very unlikely source. Just imagine with me the consternation in hell.... wondering: how did they loose it? Today, may that consternation bring you joy and peace and your enthronement in Jesus Name. Good morning.
